This episode will be a little different. Instead of a basic summary of the book I’ll Be Gone in the Dark, we will talk about the Golden State killer who is the serial rapist and murderer the book was written about. We also talk about the author, Michelle McNamara, who sadly passed away before the killer was caught. Then we dive into more details about the genetics of psychopathy and answer the age old question, why were there so many serial killers in the 70’s and 80’s?

ALSO, we forgot to rate our book hangover so we’ll let you know now….Brandi gave it a 3, I loved the book so much I spent days telling ppl about it.
